Used under authorization. welcome Greetings Mando Mercs members, friends, and fans, It seems like yesterday we were putting the finishing touches to issue #1, and now we’re releasing issue #2. We’ve had many developments in the Mercs and Star Wars since last issue; Episode VII director announce- ment, ‘3D Episodes on hold’ announcement, Membership Tiers, Verd’ika Corps kids club, Celebration Europe...the list could go on. 6 years ago this March, a small website and forum was launched to bring existing Mandalorian costumers into an organized and represent- ed group among the Star Wars community. From that small handful of people, Mandalorian Mercs has become home to thousands of mem- bers and fans around the world. My goal is to ensure that your Mercs family is here for your benefit, and that our home is a fixture in the Star Wars Universe. With your help, and the tireless help of others...we’ve been able to accomplish that goal thus far. If you’re a new reader, then I challenge you to pick up the Mercs’ banner and join us as we venture into the uncertain and exciting future of Star Wars. For Mandalore, and for you!

Mandalorian Mercs Battle Cry2 POINTOF ORDER MAY 4TH AWARDS Since taking on the role of Clan Administration Officer in late 2011, I’ve seen many changes in this club, and lots of expansion. Part of the CAO role includes keeping track of all the ‘Invasions’ for the club, as well as keeping an eye on sta- tistics and running Clan elections. Between the months of May and December 2012, the Mercs recorded 425 Invasions worldwide. I also oversee the Mercs ‘May the 4th’ Awards, unique to any Star Wars cos- tuming club. As May 4th is such a significant day for all of us in Star Wars fan- dom it seemed appropriate to run it then. The awards detail achievements of individuals and Clans relating to attended invasions (“Ground Pounder” for individuals, “Hard Contact” for Clans), the number of photos a member has appeared in in an official capacity (“Poster- boy”), Clans with the most new members (“Recruitment”), milestone awards for the total number of invasions over a member’s Mercs career, and member- voted, one-off novelty awards such as “Most Scarred” and “Terrifying”. Since last year’s awards, the Mercs have more than a hundred extra faces to participate, now 700 members in total. Which awards will you or your Clan pick up this time around? Will you achieve “Ground Pounder” status with the num- ber of times you’ve Invaded? Will you display your Clan’s ability to bring in new members with the Recruitment award? Or will you achieve the novelty awards for this year, with brand new awards on the table? Find out this May the 4th! THE IMPORTANCE OF ADMINISTRATION The Mercs is an unique group.

The UK Vok’chi clan had been one of the founding clans of the Mercs and for a long time were the only bastion in Europe when the first Celebration Europe arrived in London. But a lot has changed since then, three new European Clans have grown (and looking for an excuse to get together) and a fourth looking for that spark to gain enough members to become an official clan of the Mercs. So it seemed like a dream come true when Lucasfilm announced 26th July as the first day European Mercs would unite. But it wasn’t the easiest of roads, plenty of discussion and planning needed to be done before the Mercs would be ready to show Europe just how far they had come and it all needed to be done in less than a year! The Mercs had to begin by declaring that they would wish to attend the show as an exhibitor, receiving the ap- plication forms, the Mandalore and the PR Officer filled the forms in and declared the members who would be in charge of the table. Members of Jai’galaar Clan put forward the proposed design given to Lucasfilm Ltd. The Mercs have included several opportunities for fans to have photographs with the Mercs and a scene for them to appear in front of. Behind the scenes, the German Clan also arranged the block booking with a local hotel not too far away from the event and members began to talk amongst themselves about how they could help the Mercs achieve the set up. The PR Officer was invited to a cos- tume group roundtable with Lucas- film and several of the other Cos- tuming clubs from around Europe to discuss issues like a proposed parade and who would be appropriate as compère for events. Currently the Mercs are waiting on their given floor space so plans can be altered and based on the impres- sive efforts as Celebration VI, if the Mercs will be allocated their re- quested floor space they will have some very big shoes to fill. Clan officers have been invited to a dedicated forum to help organise amongst themselves, and quite a bit of work has already been done, including a panel proposal, the Han Solo in Carbonite is being build and several sections of the set up idea. As soon as we know we know our allocation from Lucasfilm, that’s when the real work starts. Mandalorian Mercs Battle Cry4 BUILDING A NEW CHAPTER Every Merc who has been involved in building a squad or clan knows how hard it is to begin from nothing. It certainly harks back to the troubled, yet exciting early days that our first Mercs dealt with. Building a clan takes dedication and sacrifice, as well as good negotiation skills, not only with up coming members, but other costuming clubs as well and the Netherlands is no exception. You have to take opportunities as they come and Dana Black has used the motivation of Celebration Europe II to encour- age Dutch members to complete their kits, with the real prospect that, come 26th July, Europe will be showing off its newest clan to the world.

  • Fan Remake Films: Active Engagement with Popular Texts
    FAN REMAKE FILMS: ACTIVE ENGAGEMENT WITH POPULAR TEXTS Emma Lynn A Thesis Submitted to the Graduate College of Bowling Green State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of MASTER OF ARTS May 2021 Committee: Jeffery Brown, Advisor Becca Cragin Radhika Gajjala © 2021 Emma Lynn All Rights Reserved iii ABSTRACT Jeffery Brown, Advisor In a small town in Mississippi in 1982, eleven-year-old Chris Strompolos commissioned his friends Eric Zala and Jayson Lamb to remake his favorite film, Raiders of the Lost Ark (1981). This remake would dominate their summer vacations for the next seven years. Over thirty years later in January 2020, brothers Mason and Morgan McGrew completed their shot- for-shot live action remake of Toy Story 3 (2010). This project took them eight years. Fan remake films such as Raiders of the Lost Ark: The Adaptation (1989) and Toy Story 3 in Real Life (2020) represent something unique in fan studies. Fan studies scholars, such as Henry Jenkins, have considered the many ways fans are an example of an active audience, appropriating texts for their own creative use. While these considerations have proven useful at identifying the participatory culture fans engage in, they neglect to consider fans that do not alter and change the original text in any purposeful way. Sitting at the intersection of fan and adaptation studies, I argue that these fan remake films provide useful insights into the original films, the fans’ personal lives, and fan culture at large. Through the consideration of fan remake films as a textual object, a process of creation, and a consumable media product, I look at how Raiders of the Lost Ark: The Adaptation and Toy Story 3 in Real Life reinforce the fans’ interpretations of the original films in a concrete way in their own lives and in the lives of those who watch.

    www.knowitalljoe.com "THE STAR WARS SAGA ON LOCATION" Feature -2- British production designer Norman Reynolds, a double Oscar winner for STAR WARS ana RAIDERS OF THE LOST ARK, was given a million dollar budget to clear the valley of vegetation and construct a four acre stockade to house his 30,000 square foot platform which is topped by a sixty foot, fully-rigged, anti-gravity Sail Barge. The true significance of this set will remain a closely kept secret until RETURN OF THE JEDI opens on May 25, 1983. The JEDI crew was in the area for six months, employing more than fifty local residents ana pumping more than two million dollars into the local economy. Associate to the Producer Louis Friedman was relieved to discover that, almost without exception, "I could find anything we needed locally. I just had to look a bit longer ana harder." Assistant art director Chris Campbell concurs: "The merchants here really helped us a lot. They realized that with an operation of this size, when we ord~red a product, we needed it all-- not just a gallon or two." Some of the things they needed were two million gallons of water (drawn from the All American Canal) to continually dampen down and grade the only possible access road and sixteen thousand pounds of nails to keep the massiv~ Sail Barge structure steady.
